A review by mariahaskins
The Stone Wētā by Octavia Cade

5.0

The Stone Wētā is a sharp and bold book about climate change and the vital importance of science to understand climate change and, maybe, reduce its impact. It’s also a book about the importance of cooperation. In the story, Cade shows us teams and groups of scientists working together to gather data and hone their ideas. In a broader social context, teamwork and cooperation are also shown to be vitally important in order to mount a successful resistance to counteract the oppression by corporations and governments.

The Stone Wētā feels like an important and urgent read in today’s world. It is also a compelling and intricately crafted piece of science fiction. It’s a dark vision of the future, but Cade’s story also offers hope and inspiration, and that is sorely needed these days.
